The girl was just one of 47 shooting victims in Chicago over the weekend, five of which were fatal, according to statistics released by the Chicago Police Department.

The answer is obviously to remove guns from the hands of law-abiding Chicago citizens.

I saw one of these shirts recently. The young lady wearing it is very likely a supporter of left wing politics.
To: MeshugeMikey
And every one of those reports will call for increased spending.

47 shot, five dead over just the weekend? We haven’t had that many shot or killed here in the county I live in for over 160 years, including the Indian wars of the 1860s. And almost everyone here owns a gun. Its not a gun problem, it is a criminal problem.

“Shitcago officials met Monday to discuss the city’s recent surge in gun violence.”
Seems like a “surge” every weekend, better when it’s hot or a four-day holiday weekend.
Blood running in the streets courtesy of liberal DemoRAT controlled city government.

I feel sorry for the great grandmother who’s wearing the Obama shirt but I hope she realizes that Obama is going to provide much safer places for all the illegals than they have for her great grandchild.

Well, it can't be the breakdown of the family due to generations of welfare, or lenient judges, or taking God out of the schools, or disarming law abiding citizens or...(well, you get the point).

The answer is obviously to remove guns from the hands of law-abiding Chicago citizens.Yes, their gun control laws are not working, so they need more gun control laws. /s Do these idiots actually believe the BS coming out of their mouths, or do they like to see lots of innocent people get killed?

47 shot, and only 5 Ks? that’s some crappy shooting. I’m assuming their gun training was conducted by Hollywood.
